So today we pretty much blew our first 15 tries or so, because of way too many stupid fails. This is why tomorrow we really want to make those last few tries count.
Therefore I'm wondering if there's anything that I did significantly wrong, or if there are any useful tips you guys could give me.
My character:
Spec: Destruction, GoSup
ilvl: 534
Haste: ~8.1k
Mastery: ~9k
Crit: ~3.2k
All stats given are in a completely unbuffed state.
The fight:
I keep my pet on him and simply spam Incinerate on Ra-den while keeping RoF up at all times. A few seconds before the balls spawn I stack my Backdraft up to 6 to get max burst out of my CBs.
Whenever Havoc is ready I use it to split my CBs on balls/crackling add and Ra-den.
Right now we are kind of struggling with the balls and sometimes they get through, especially when one of our range dps has to be outside of the camp for the unstable vita and can't deal any damage to the incomming ball, because he's not in range.
That's why everyone in our raid keeps one of his strongest CDs (Dark Soul, Ascendance, Stampede, etc.) to counter the bad RNG and always have at least someone with a strong dps output.
My questions:
1. Are there any obvious mistakes to my and my raid group's playstyle that you can see right away?
2. Should I reforge into max crit? I simmed myself and it tells me that it would be a clear dps loss in overall dps, but maybe still a good idea to gain more burst?
3. What do you recommend to outplay bad RNG like range dps not being able to attack the incomming balls? (We're playing with 4 ranged/2 melee)
4. Do you think it's a good idea to delay personal dps CDs, like we do it, to always have someone pop his strongest CD? I gues I don't have to tell you that this is resulting in a noticeable overall dps loss on the boss (especially for me).
5. Any other advice?
Thanks guys.
